Recent reviews for independent living in Mc Kinnon

Homestead Village of Pensacola

5.0
My dad has been a resident here for over a year. I'm so thankful that he's going to be able to age in place and not have to move to another facility as his dementia progresses. He's happy, and that's what counts most of all.

Brookdale Pensacola

4.8
I absolutely love the employees and their interactions with the residents. I would highly recommend Brookdale Pensacola. Once the food situation is solved, they should have a 10 in every category.

Seabrook Pointe in Daphne, AL

Seabrook missing a great opportunity to make residents more active. The Spanish Fort Community Center is 12 minutes away and we COULD be involved at least a couple times a week where a plethora of activities await residents.
